Since she was best known, before and after her marriage, as Sarah Stone it is very possible that this watercolour was painted the year of her marriage; indeed few examples of her work exist after her marriage and certainly after the auction of the Lever Collection in 1806, no signed and dated watercolour survives from after this date.
